Hundreds affected by burst pipe
A burst pipe which left more than 1,300 Scottish Water customers in Falkirk without water has been repaired.

A broken outflow pipe in the Hillhead area left customers in Hallglen and Lionthorn dependent on bottled water on Monday.

A spokesperson for Scottish Water said the leak had been repaired and that supplies were expected to be back on tap by about 1700 BST.

Customers experiencing difficulties can call 0845 601 8855 for advice.
